Doesn't this solution require downloading the file, reencoding and then it's available to watch? How do you only need one minute to start watching?

Doesn't sound to me like they actually understand what they're talking about. Sonarr and Radarr both use trackers to download files from either torrents or usenet. Emby is a media server that displays the downloaded files (like netflix). You don't typically have to reencode what you download.

Right but you still wait for however long the file needs to download. Normally quite a bit more than 1 minute. That's what got me confused about this almost streaming like experience that I'm missing out on.

Yeah that part of their comment was also misleading. Basically they're saying Radarr/Sonarr are better than torrents but really they're just a fancy front end. If something downloads fast on them it will go just as fast in whatever torrent client you use.

reencoding is not required in advance, it happens on the fly if needed.

download still needs to be completed first usually, but you can save a lot of time if you compromise in quality.

I wish? That's not my experience, anything that's not superpopular is hard to find. Are you using private trackers?

I prefer NGINX with autoindex. Lightweight, no JavaScript, looks like every Linux ISO mirror, filenames already have all the required info, can be quickly searched with CTRL+F, fits perfectly to my laziness.

If you want some improvement, you can use FancyIndex module.

But the files need to be in codecs supported by your browser(s). I prefer AV1+Opus in WebM container which have been supported by Firefox for a while. At this point it's really only Safari not fully supporting AV1 because it relies on hardware decoding and Apple wants you to buy new hardware.
